风险社会视域下的技术信任与机制构建

摘要/Abstract

摘要：技术自主性和复杂性的提升，引发技术信任问题日益凸显。技术信任是委托方的主观信任，相信借助技术能达成目标的信念所产生的信任。基于风险社会理论，从信任和技术两个维度溯源技术信任本质，发现技术信任与风险存在关联。技术信任蕴含风险因素，可以塑造风险标准、促成风险共谋和催生新的权威。同时，技术信任主要存在信任技术还是人的客体定位争辩和具有二者都不可信的不确定性。然而人有追求自由的本性，尽管感受到技术信任可能导致生存风险，却依然付诸技术信任。此外，技术逐渐变得复杂、先进且难以理解，增加了风险防控的难度，而人自身的能力有限，需要技术信任来提高应对风险的能力。因此，需要准确把握技术信任与风险的关系，在风险社会中构建注重价值引领、技术伦理、技术追责、风险防控和人才培养的技术信任机制，坚持以人为本的技术发展核心价值理念，在技术设计至应用的全过程嵌入技术伦理机制，动态监测技术进化路径以预防、修补漏洞和进行技术追责，多方协同防范突发性和累积性风险，以及培养人心向善的高质量德技融合人才，以引领技术向善，保障人的生存与自由。

Abstract: The increasing autonomy and complexity of technology have brought the issue of technology trust to the forefront.Technology trust refers to the subjective confidence of stakeholders in achieving desired goals through technical means.From the theoretical perspective of risk society and by examining both trust and technology,this study traces the essence of technology trust and reveals its intrinsic relationship with risk.Technology trust inherently involves risk factors that not only shape risk standards but also facilitate risk complicity and give rise to new forms of authority.At the same time,debates persist regarding whether trust should be placed in technology or humans,as both are subject to uncertainty and potential failure.Despite awareness of the existential risks associated with technological dependence,individuals continue to place trust in technology due to their innate pursuit of freedom.Furthermore,as technologies grow increasingly sophisticated,opaque,and difficult to comprehend,the challenges of risk prevention and control intensify,while human capabilities remain limited—thus heightening reliance on technological trust to manage uncertainties.Therefore,it is essential to accurately understand the interplay between technological trust and risk.In the context of a risk society,a comprehensive mechanism for technological trust should be built,focusing on value guidance,technological ethics,accountability frameworks,risk prevention,and talent development.This approach must uphold the core principle of people-centered technological development,embed ethical mechanisms throughout the design-to-application lifecycle of technology,dynamically monitor technological evolution to anticipate,address,and assign responsibility for vulnerabilities,coordinate multi-stakeholder efforts to prevent both sudden and cumulative risks,and cultivate high-quality professionals who integrate moral integrity with technical competence—thereby guiding technology toward the good and safeguarding human existence and freedom.
